Description

I seem to be on a bit of a run at the moment, before the moon really gets bright. Some narrowband work tonight, I hope. This is an object I have wanted to take for a while, and it comprises of 116 subs in RGB, at 2 minutes exposure time each. I am pleased to have been able to capture the planetary nebula's outer ring, to a degree, and have the globular within the same field of view. It was tough managing that sea of stars, which for me, is reminiscent of the mass of stars one gets round the cocoon nebula, in widefield. The imaging time was 3 hours and 52 minutes. Have a good night everyone...
